Mobile Wheel Repair
Our mobile technicians repair steel, aluminum, and alloy wheels at your location, including homes, businesses, and dealerships. Using fully equipped vehicles, we perform refinishing, priming, and clear-coating with infrared curing. This service saves time and avoids vehicle downtime, with repairs typically completed within one hour per wheel.
Wheel Customization
We offer custom paint, powder coating, and pinstriping to enhance your vehicle's appearance. Our team color-matches factory finishes and recreates machine finishes with personalized accents. Options include gloss, satin, and matte finishes, as well as specialty colors like bronze, gold, and gun metal for unique styling.
Bent Wheel Straightening
Using a patent-pending system, we restore bent wheels caused by potholes, curbs, or road damage. The process addresses issues like wobbling, vibration, and poor handling. Wheels require 24-48 hours in our shop for complex repairs, with no charge if straightening fails.
Powder Coating
Powder coating provides a resilient, color-matched finish for wheels using electrostatic application and heat treatment. Ideal for full-wheel coverage, it resists chipping and fading better than traditional paint. Available in gloss, satin, and matte textures for long-lasting protection.
Refinishing
We repair scratches, rust, curb damage, and chemical corrosion on wheels. The process includes sanding, priming, painting, and clear-coating to restore factory appearance. Most refinishing jobs complete within 24-48 hours, with mobile and shop options available.

I had a great experience here with a bent wheel repair. While scheduling was wonky with the recent snowstorms in the area David went above and beyond to get my wheel done on time, and in fact had it finished early when my plans changed and I needed it sooner. Made a huge difference in how smooth the car drives and saved me $700 compared to buying a new wheel from the dealer. Everyone who I interacted with was very friendly and helpful. Thank you so much!
